Victorian STERLING SILVER Cup Vapheio LARGE Antique CHESTER 1899 HEAVY 298g

  
PLEASE CHECK ALL MEASUREMENTS IMAGES AND INFORMATION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. An antique Victorian large and very heavy sterling silver cup by George Nathan & Ridley Hayes which is decorated in relief. Two gold examples of this were found in a Tholos burial at Vapheio near Sparta , southern Greece in 1888 by Christos Tsountas. They are a type of Mycenaean drinking vessel which have flaring sides a single handle and a flat base. I have to say this piece is beautifully crafted with bulls , man and foliate design in relief and is a very heavy and substantial piece at nearly 300 grams of sterling silver. Great to find a Victorian piece as most where after 1900's and this is exceptional quality and of course the very collectable Chester hallmark.
